Abstract

Environmentally benign waterproof and breathable membranes with high-performance and photocatalytic self-cleaning properties were prepared by combining water-based hydrophobic materials and photo-sensitive inorganic nanoparticle coatings with electrospun nanofiber matrices. The membranes exhibited prominent water-resistant behavior, high breathability, superior mechanical strength as well as significant degradation capability to organic pollutants.
